Workforce Risk.Compliance. Continuity.


Identify workforce vulnerabilities, strengthen compliance, and build organisational resilience.

Independent risk assessment and advisory for the people function

Where it fits


The people function carries risk that rarely fits inside a single audit. Hiring, retention, conduct, third party labour, training, continuity and controls each hold exposure that only becomes visible under scrutiny. Carthage Risk Consulting reviews the workforce as a risk surface, in the same senior tone we apply to advisory and country work.

What we deliver


Workforce Risk Assessment

A structured review of workforce exposure across roles, functions and locations. We identify concentration risk, control gaps and dependencies that leadership can act on.

Personnel Due Diligence

Independent background review for senior hires, sensitive positions and pre appointment scenarios. Discreet, documented, defensible.

Employee & Position Risk

Position by position mapping of authority, access, conflict and continuity risk. Useful before restructuring, promotion decisions or new mandates.

Workforce Compliance Assessment

A read on how the organisation stands against applicable employment, social, data and sector requirements. Findings expressed as risk, not paperwork.

Competency & Training Risk

Independent view of skill coverage, mandatory training exposure and gaps that affect operational or regulatory posture.

Employee Integrity & Conduct Risk

Assessment of integrity, conflict and conduct risk across the organisation and at named positions of trust. Guided by clear boundaries and confidentiality.

Third Party & Contractor Risk

Review of outsourced, seconded and contracted workforce arrangements, focused on control, accountability and continuity of the wider operation.

Workforce Continuity & Resilience

Continuity of critical roles under absence, disruption or exit. Sits alongside our wider resilience and re planning work.

HR Process & Control Risk

Independent review of the HR process chain from hiring to exit, focused on control quality, evidence, and where a control is quietly relied on without being tested.

Workforce Monitoring & Advisory

Ongoing senior advisory on workforce risk, including a scheduled read out to leadership. Right sized for the organisation, kept private.

Services are delivered in line with applicable Tunisian regulations covering employment, social protection, data privacy, cybersecurity, ethics and integrity, whistleblower policy, training, and sector requirements. Where a client operates across jurisdictions, we adapt to the relevant framework.

Understand → Assess → Advise → Support


Understand. The organisation as it actually runs, not as it is described on paper.

Assess. Where workforce exposure sits and how visible it is to leadership today.

Advise. Written and spoken counsel to the principal, the board or the people function.

Support. Through decision, implementation and the period immediately after.

Best fit


Principals, chief executives, boards and senior partners who treat the workforce as a material risk surface. Family offices with sensitive appointments. Organisations preparing for growth, restructuring, a sensitive hire or a regulatory review. Least fit: buyers looking for a fixed audit deliverable rather than considered counsel.

The Elissa Standard

Discuss an arrangement


A senior conversation is best had before a decision is close. Describe the situation in general terms, and the conversation continues privately.
